Jo Malone fans can grab a £118 ‘divine’ perfume for just £18 with a clever money-saving trick, just in time for Mother’s Day. A full-size bottle of the luxury house’s best-selling English Pear & Freesia and English Pear & Sweet Pea perfumes typically costs £118 for 100ml, which is too expensive for many.
But there is a way to bag bottles of designer Jo Malone’s perfume for £18 by using a clever saving tip. Shoppers at LookFantastic can get two smaller bottles of the brand’s best-selling fragrances for £36 in a Jo Malone gift set, making for an impressive Mother’s Day present. It’s the perfect size to throw in a handbag for work, a holiday or a night out.

You can also get two 30ml bottles for £110 from the Jo Malone website. This works out to around £183 per £100ml. You can buy full size versions from John Lewis here, which cost £118 per £100ml. The large bottles offer the best value for money, but the smaller ones mean you can test and mix and match lots of scents.
English Pear & Sweet Pea is a fairly simple fragrance with a white musk base, sweet pea center and a top note of Williams Pear. But it’s the English Pear & Freesia fragrance that turns so many heads.
The perfume begins with fruity notes of pear and melon. It then softens into floral notes of freesia and rose. It is further deepened with base notes of musk, patchouli, rhubarb and amber.

People who use the perfume say it boosts their confidence. English Pear & Freesia Cologne is a best-selling item for the brand. It has received an impressive rating: 4.6 out of 5, based on 2,463 reviews on the Jo Malone website.
One person expressed: “This is my favorite scent! It smells so fresh and makes me feel beautiful when I wear it. I’ve also gotten a lot of compliments. LOVE IT!!”
Another wrote: “I’ve been wearing this fragrance for about 4 years. I get raves from strangers and everyone who knows me too. Every now and then I’ll think about trying something new but I keep coming back to English pear and freesia. It’s just the right amount of floral and spice. It’s not too fruity, even though it’s in that category on the website.”
A third customer said: “The best fragrance I have ever smelled! I was in Venice when I had the chance to enter a Jo Malone store and my mind was blown. I instantly fell in love with the smell of this perfume. It fits me perfectly!
“I just like how I feel when I wear it: more confident and elegant. I combine it with Peony & Blush Suede to create a unique scent. Everyone compliments my perfume!”
A fourth person said: “I use two spritzes of this – one on my neck and one on my wrist. Every time I wear it fresh around people I always get compliments. It almost smells like pink at times, but you can definitely get a few different floral notes and the nice fruity pear top. It also smells very different on my skin than it does on a perfume card or anyone else.
“It’s somehow delicate and sexy at the same time – and I LOVE it. I hope to make this my signature scent for years to come. I’m so glad I found it. I think it works for all seasons and times of the day too.”
